Scan-a-Thon

Today was update Tuesday and it didn't even involve Windows 10 Creator's Update.

Started out with a new version of Roboform - which hopefully will correct some syncing problems.

Next I got a good deal on upgrading my photo management program - 2 for one. I started the Web installer which promptly died - so I had to download and install manually on my Windows desktop. It works. On my laptop where I use the second copy everything worked great. Who knows why? For some reason the new version doesn't replace the old one so I had two photo management apps and had to uninstall the old version.

Next ESET wanted to upgrade from Version 9 to version 10. This meant it had to do a complete system scan after installation. The desktop with a powerful quad core and SSD breezed through the scan in about 40 minutes. The slower laptop with its 5400 RPM hard drive took 5 hours before the scan-a-thon was finished.

"Do you begin to see, then, what kind of world we are creating? It is the exact opposite of the stupid hedonistic Utopias that the old reformers imagined. A world of fear and treachery and torment, a world of trampling and being trampled upon, a world which will grow not less but more merciless as it refines itself. Progress in our world will be progress toward more pain." -George Orwell, 1984
